Throughout her decades in the spotlight, Halle Berry has honed her ability to combine beauty with event themes. Her choices are always inspiring and appropriate, and most often filled with a personal touch, allowing for a bit of self-expression. During a special appearance on a TIME 100-sponsored women’s health panel, Berry wore her hair in a half-up style that struck the perfect balance between business casual and classic bombshell. There’s no denying that the voluminous style offers a sensual feel – signature Berry, of course – but its polished structure makes it a clever choice for a earnest occasion.
Berry was recognized by TIME magazine as one of the 100 most essential voices in health, honored for her commitment to promoting advances in women’s care, with a particular focus on the treatment of postmenopausal and midlife women. Therefore, on May 14, she was invited to Novel York for a special panel discussion on this topic. Her outfit with a pointed jacket and skirt is purely formal. just enough, with a plunging neckline for a bit of fun. This clever and sensual combination is reflected in her half-up hairstyle, which has a hint of retro-inspired volume at the top and a slightly ruffled texture throughout. Finally, the partially pulled back model is fastened with a bunch of hidden pins, which gives the illusion that it is unsecured.
This style goes particularly well with long, tapered bangs, which have become something of a Berry trademark in recent years. They frame her face and facilitate create additional flow and texture in the front of her half-up look. On Instagram, Berry shared that her panel hairstyle was courtesy of a celebrity professional Sarah Sewardwho has collaborated with the star several times in the past – who could forget the curly, asymmetrical bob that Seward created for the 2023 Oscars?
When they team up, the pair seem to have a knack for modernizing vintage hairstyles, and Berry’s TIME 100 look is a prime example of that. A teased crowned volume may scream 60’sbut fashionable bangs and a curled back are pure 2024. Berry proves once again why she is such a perennial beauty icon.
